Harbour Seal Fun Fisherman's Wharf Victoria BC | Gingerbread Cottage

Harbour seals are a common sight at Fisherman’s Wharf. Here's five seals putting on a cute show for about a dozen people standing on the dock. There is also a gorgeous close up shot of a seagull flying through the frame. Fisherman's Wharf is just down the street from our Gingerbread Cottage Bed and Breakfast in downtown Victoria BC. Come stay with us and you could have a chance to see the seals for yourself.
